X-plan price, how do I find out the cost?

I just searched the boards for X-plan pricing but can't find what the cost is. I want an 04 with the bed cover. I already have an X-plan pin so now I just need to find out the price.

Thanks for any help guys.

Not sure how the x-plan pin works but I just picked up an 03 that stickered for $33,845. Got it without x-plan for $29,380~. Salesman told me x-plan would take off about $200 more. If you can find an 03 this is probably a better deal. Mine had 13 miles on it. Anderson Ford in Clinton Illinois have some 03's left.

The dealer can give you the X Plan pricing as it's a no haggle price that is based off actual cost. Make sure they don't try and hit you up with any additional mark up. Not all dealers will accept x plan pricing, but with a large number of 03 and 04 Lightnings available, you shouldn't have a problem finding one. I believe the pricing should be around $28,800, plus I have heard of some having a rebate that Ford has been offering. Very sweet deal for a sweet truck.

X-Plan pricing is "friends and Family" pricing and
is listed on the Invoice ...

The trucks that I negotiated on were $29,800 x-plan. Another varied by $100 because the sticker price did. Each dealer must show you the x-plan price; trust me, it's right on the offered paper.

You walk in, tell them you are purchasing on the X-plan
and want THAT truck or car and they are SUPPOSED to
bring you the invoice, show you the X-plan price and THAT'S
that ... No bicker, sticker addon or anything else.

After all, it's a FORD program to reward loyal FORD people.

Why wouldn't a dealer honor it?

Some cars ARE excluded from the plan though (T-Birds I think)

Are there any rebates currently or good % rates that apply to the L's right now?

***FYI, X plan is NOT shown on invoice.*** Only * A *plan and i believe *D* plan along with invoice,holdback and sticker.The way X plan works is you take A plan and multiply it by 1.04 which is 4% higher than *A* plan.This is the ONLY way X plan works. I repeat,there is no X plan pricing on invoice.

So you ask to see the invoice,they will show you A plan.X plan is 4% higher than it.This is the formula dealerships are told to use for x plan pricing.Anybody who tells you different just doesnt know the truth.

A plan -----is only good for people who work in the building process of ford products.(not salesman)

D plan ------ is used for emplyees of BLUE OVAL CERTIFIED dealerships.

X plan
(family and freinds program) is used for potential stock holders of Ford product.Along with a shareholders information program,they send you a application for a pin # for you to try out a ford vehicle at a reduced cost.This program is used and abused more than porno starsSome dealers TRY to sneak in destination charges but its supposed to be included in A plan +4% Now you guys are "IN THE KNOW"

So there you have it.The truth about X plan........

Bought my 03L two weeks ago and the dealer kindly gave me a copy of the full original invoice. There clearly shown above the box titled "Ford Motor Accounting Use only" was the x-plan and a-plan prices!!

Unless invoices are shown differently for Canada (they are ALL printed in Canada ) mine had x-plan on the invoice
